Mangalore, July 31: “If murders happen in broad daylight and the case remains unsolved for more than a month, how can a common man live safely in this society?” asked Muneer Katipalla, President, Democratic Youth Federation of India.

He was speaking at a protest organised by Kuloor-Kavoor unit of DYFI, demanding high level inquiry into Panjimogaru double murder case.

More than 100 protestors took out at protest march from Panjimogaru, the place of brutal double murder, and converged at Kavoor junction to pressurise the police department and politicians.

Mr Katipalla said that the people have the right to know the culprit behind this gruesome crime.

Criticising the police department for failing to solve the case even after a month, he said culprit should be punished.

Noticing how rumors have made people living in the area doubt each other, he resented the way in which suspicion has crept over several innocents.

If such murderers were not caught, they'll get a boost to continue such atrocities. When police cannot solve cases like this, they should hand it over to higher departments such as COD, he opined.

Imthiaz B K, President, DYFI, Mangalore City, Dayanand Shetty, District Secretary, DYFI, Mohammed Shareef, Former Corporator, Saajida, President, DYFI women's wing and many others were present.


60 people interrogated

Meanwhile, speaking on the condition of anonymity, a police officer informed that over 60 people including criminals and family members of the victims have been interrogated by four teams of 20 officers so far. “The case has too many angles and even City Crime Bureau Police is investigating into it”, he said.

He appealed that people come forward and cooperate with police if they have any information.

It can be recalled that Razia (35), wife of a scrap merchant and their daughter Fathima Zua (8) were murdered in their two-story house in Panjimogaru in Kavoor police station limits on June 28.

Bengaluru, Apr 11: Karnataka Library Department’s mobile application, which is said to be the first of its kind initiative in the country has seen an exponential growth in downloads during the COVID-19 lockdown, a senior Minister said on Friday. The main reason that the application is growing is due to the heavy students demand as schools and colleges are closed during the 21-day nationwide lockdown.

Students are relying on online material for their studies as they can’t step out of the house and risk being infected.

The Library Department's efforts to keep readers active through the lockdown time, by prompting them to utilise its e-initiatives is paying off, Primary and Secondary Education Minister Suresh Kumar said.

"The app is seeing exponential increase in downloads since its launch. As many as 16,500 people have taken it; while ten thousand people have downloaded it during this brief lock down time itself," he said.

E-library mobile app was released by the library department on February 26.

There are over one lakh e-books available on department's digital platform ranging from arts, humanity, school curriculum, competitive exams and self help to classic novels - all for free for the readers.

"Its needless to say, the variety of attractive content that is available in the app is creating all the buzz among the public. Not just the books, the app contains over 600 educational videos too," the Minister said in a statement.

Considering that over 16,500 readers have downloaded the app since its launch a couple of months back, its high time, we see this domain as an opportunity for growth, he said, and stressed on the need for better adaptability approaches to the changing times.
